David Orden, Senior IFPRI Research Fellow and Director of the Global Issues Initiative, Institute for Society, Culture, and Environment, at Virginia Tech, is one of five organizers for this workshop funded by the Farm Foundation, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Economic Research Service, and the U.S. International Trade Commission. The objective of the workshop is to shed light on transparency and regulatory issues in Nontariff Measures (NTMs) affecting food and agricultural trade. The event will also address how transparency can be increased and how NTMs can be made to reflect the concerns of all stakeholders, particularly importers and exporters. This one-day workshop will bring together 40 participants from the food industry, agribusinesses, government, and universities. The workshop will focus specifically on sanitary and phytosanitary measures and technical barriers to trade.
